- In this week's video I am reviewing some of my Milwaukee M18 tools. I may do a follow up on the M12 tools and some of the other hand tools and accessories if people are interested - please let me know in the comments. The tools I am focussing on are those used for joinery/carpentry, as that is what I do for a living.

Awesome vid. Love that angle grinder. The on/off switch on my Makita is ridiculously hard to use when you're wearing gloves. 👍🛠️
Makita has one with a big lever as well. You yust have to look wich one you buy..
My makita is the same, a real pain in the a$$ wearing gloves.
Cheers Andy, yeah I really like the paddle design
Great video Keith I love milwaukee tools. I like that tablesaw and the chopsaw, will have to look at getting one. Thanks for the info 👍
Thanks I am looking forward to buying the M12 Milwaukee pin nailer
Excellent review, thanks. Never considered cordless tools beyond a drill, especially a table saw. May need to rethink that.
Hi Keith I’m glad you did the video I am already looking at some Milwaukee tools and already bought some of their M18 tools.
Ok..these tools seem to be the bomb! I’m throwing my Bosch Blue! Thanks for the vid Keith great as always!
Yes Keith i would love a m12 and hand tools follow up video thanks.
I'd love a follow up on the M12 tools. I've just built up a bit of a collection myself, as I see them as the perfect home/keen DIYer tools. I have the Impact Driver, Drill Driver with interchangeable heads (offset, right angle and standard chuck), circular saw, oscillating multi tool, rotary tool (so many uses for this one), SDS drill and have just added the little leaf blower. I'd love to see an M12 Fuel jigsaw (a few videos I've watched on the standard M12 one doesn't paint it in the best light).
Love to hear your thoughts about the M12 range, as i'm looking to move to it!
I currently have a Milwaukee M18 drill and it's very good I'm going to invest in Milwaukee tools.
this video's very helpful Keith thanks
Love your content been watching for 4 years
great video Keith. Those tools have some great features for sure. Wished I hadn't already got a bunch of the makita tools/batteries.
I'd be interested in seeing how the M12 tools fare side by side against the M18 tools, especially if you can give a rough idea of the price difference. Dropping top dollar on M18 might be a bit too much for people, but if the M12 range still gives good performance for most DIY and beginning professionals, then that'd be useful to know.
Also, this video doesn't have any Dylan footage / photos in, so that's a definate area for improvement.
I don't know about the M12 tools (heard good things but never tried them) but I absolutely LOVE the bosch pro 12V line up. I find they're pretty much perfect for my use (beginner woodworker) and imo they are quite affordable for quality tools. I have a drill, an impact driver, the mini circular saw and the jig saw. Pretty sure I am also going to get the mini angle grinder and the multitool sometime this year. The milwaukee 12v lineup looks great too but they're just more expensive, at least where I am.
Great informed review Keith. I’m on the Makita platform, but those Milwaukee have some really nice features. Thanks for the review.
Thanks Paul
I’ve just recently bought the 10 inch miter saw from Screwfix and I really like it but was very disappointed to find that unlike the American model the UK version does NOT come equipped with the ‘shadow line’. I actually didn’t think the led lights were of much value. So I looked online, found a part number for the shadow line assembly and ordered it from the US, Alaska actually. It arrived in about 2 weeks and I fitted it to my saw. (A certain amount of disassembly is required including the motor but it’s easier than it looks at first) The wiring was already there, I disconnected the led lights and modified the plastic wire cover on the blade guard and now I have the proper shadow line and very pleased with the results.
Thanks for your video I have been using Milwaukee tools for some time now my first set was drill impact driver but my is the previous set to yours it came with 5 amp battery’s but I bought two extra batteries l have had this set for about 3 years and I have given them hell and they don’t let me down outstanding everything works on them l also have the Planer l also very happy with it last year at first lock down my wife bought me the Milwaukee chop saw m18fms254 so I got the m18 12 amp battery for it and boy am I happy with it last week I was cutting 25 mm angle aluminium doing mitre cuts it lasted all day and more again very happy l have just got into the packouts a few little things I am not pleased about but on the hole very good well I will be getting more tools as your self but I if Milwaukee are listening why can’t we have all the red packouts please here in the uk 🇬🇧 thanks for your time and help 👍👏👏
I can't decide if your shirt is meant to look like deep space... or if you were painting 😀
If only Milwaukee did a paint air gun Keith would have dust extraction on that too and a clean black shirt
www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073JV7WBL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_b4XY9xhHOKU8t it's this one!! 🤣
Appreciated your candor. I've only used a few Milwaukee tools at a buddy's auto shop, but they all worked well. WatchJRGo also loves his cordless Milwaukee impact tools. I think if I was in the market for a new tool system, Milwaukee would be a strong contender. But the tools I own are too new to consider that, for a good while...
Hi. Loved the review. I'm just looking at what platform to go for as I've not really purchase many cordless tools, but the more I do the more I realise it is the way to go. I narrowed it down to Milwaukee and was looking at the battery platform this morning.
PS I have no issue with you reviewing tools that you were given free! You're always up front and your review had good and bad. Thanks!!!
Thank you
I have used and abused my Milwaukee tools day in and day out! they have yet to fail. Love the Hole Hawg as a sparks that has made my life so much better. Only complaint I have had is with the Gen 2 drill chuck, it was crap.
I've still got the old Milwaukee drill driver with metal gears ,got it in usa weighs a ton and made in Germany ,thats when Milwaukee was Milwaukee
i have the milwaukee m18 table saw as well and your experience is pretty much similar to mine. even the table top flatness. it's been great after 6 months. i put away the mitre gauge since it's crap. lol
so much useful information condensed into bite size video.
I'm a DeWalt user,just because I started with them.If I was starting again I would definitely go Milwaukee
Hi Keith, nice honest reviews. The graduations on the Milwaukee Palm Router are almost certainly for the US market. Metrication to them is the "work of the devil". 1/64" with one dot is likely to be 1/64", two dots 2/64" (1/32") and so on. Why so complicated is anyone's guess?
Could those markings on the router be one sixty fourth of an inch adjustments
Definitely would like to hear your views on the m12 kit.
some very good tools
I like small 12 volt tools for cabinet assembly. Would appreciate a review of Milwaukee M12 tools.
Great video. You have a fantastic collection of tools. Im not jelous much
Nice tool review, they seem to have thought about innovation with some of the features. That switchable dust port is a great idea, and no tools needed for blade changes on the grinder is brilliant.
Did you build those gates, I'm guessing a future video????
Yes video coming soon👍
I'm looking at adding some Milwaukee tools to my arsenal. Thanks for this review. I'm normally a Bosch man, but there are some Milwaukee tools I think they make better than Bosh. 🧰 🛠️
I'm about to build my own house and am currently debating which platform to standardise on as I have no interest in trying to buy batteries and chargers across multiple platforms. Hikoki? DeWalt? Milwaukee? All of them have their virtues. DeWalt seems to. be favoured by a lot of local contractors. Hikoki is cheaper. But now I'm thinking that Milwaukee may be the better choice. A very timely video for me! Thanks, Keith. Keep up the good work!
"I just really like quiet tools".
Much earlier:
"I'm considering a career change. Maybe something that involves a small workshop and lots of power tools"
Embrace the noise:)
I wish I could find the circular saw dust port to add to my saw. It didn't come with one. Sadly.
Keith, please do a review on the M12s. I have a 5 tools powered by that size, and I know for a fact a hate my skill saw. No power. Even with the square bottom battery.
I’ve always wanted to move to the Milwaukee platform. They really do have the best range...in my opinion!
No they don't they have the worst racist's working customer support!
Hi, great video - wondering whether the Mitre Saw came installed with a shadow line LED for accurate cutting? Seen lots of comments on social media stating the European version of the saw doesn't as Dewalt holds the patent. Interested to know as a deal breaker for me.
Was wondering the very same thing. In this video there is no shadow line!
well done
Gladley some about M12.
Seems the numbering on the router...looks like 1/64" incremental adjustments.
I'm from the Philippines and planning to do some DIY and buying some tools, but having a hard time looking for a good brand with affordable. any recommendations?
The alien looking numbers on the small hand router i think are imperial you need an excel spreadsheet to work them out metric all the way(I’m from the uk btw)
If you want a mitre saw with excellent dust extraction there is only 1 option Festool Kapex KS 120 reb I personally wouldn’t use any other mitre saw pair it with the stand and extension arms and Festool dust extraction nothing comes even close to be honest Milwaukee Dewalt Makita Bosch are much of the same it’s only when you bite the bullet and invest in Festool and Mafell you notice the difference in build quality and precision cheers
Nice pieces of kit ! Novel how the fore/aft slides are low slung under the worktable instead of above. Bit of space saving! Approx how much cutting time or cut ft board per battery charge? (Of 3 different amperage batteries) . Price ... £1k at Amazon ... Ouchhh!!
Hi John, I've never really tested battery life and number of cuts but if you check out the toolbox buzz channel, I'm pretty sure they did it in great detail. The Amazon is ridiculous at the moment, but most Amazon prices fluctuate all the time. It can be had for around £564 elsewhere online (without battery)
Great video Keith. I personally have committed to Dewalt. It’s a shame there is no versatility with batteries and we are almost forced into the one brand.
Have a look on Ebay, lot's of guys selling conversion plates that make you batteries fit other brands.
I can guarantee they'll last the test of time better than any yellow and black tool I've an 18 volt Milwaukee for over ten years never a bother with it👍
Can you tell me how much is the wiki saw table saw is please and by the way I got a table saw for sale a Screwfix mind
It's around £564 if you shop around online at the moment without battery 👍
You say that Milwaukee sent you the tools for free. Didn’t Hikoki do the same some time back Keith. So what happened to the cooperation you have with Hikoki. Just asking. Great videos though. Look forward to seeing them all.
Had warranty repairs on 18v drill and failure of driver within 3 months.
Still have a cordless hot air gun and a 12volt soldering iron.
It’s all a bit ‘big plastic’ feel.Impact driver bits and drills are shite, stay clear !!!!
Very good video please do an M 12 video and maybe you could do an overview of all the tools and what you have and not review them are just a big list
Me thinks Milwaukee has a camera in the Dewalt table saw factory. That rack and pinion fence system looks awfully familiar.🤔
Toolbox buzz channel has a good comparison between the two saws
Milwaukee certainly have been wiping the floor with the other similar price makes you'd nearly think that the designers actually use the tools.
do they supply a 240v /110v supply cord converter ?
No - other company's designers do the work and use the tools. Then the Chinese manufacturers just come along and knock it off.
I had the same query actually. But based on what I've read I think there could be an issue, as I suspect they'd have done it already if they could... but I don't really understand electrics! 👍
1/64th is roughly 0.4mm.
Each dot represents 1/64 deeper.
Roughly;
one dot = 0.4mm
two dots = 0.8mm
three dots = 1.2mm
Four dots = 1.6mm
That is about as clear as I could make it.
There are three countries left in the world using Imperial. USA, Liberia and Myanmar. (Burma.) So as you can see, the market outside of the USA for tools using imperial is so vast they thought it best to leave the overseas market in Imperial.
I've got a strange feeling that milwaukee table saw has been made for them by dewalt as it looks soooooo similar.
More likely they have just lifted the design.
They're different saws, although I think the fence is potentially the same. Toolbox buzz channel has a good comparison video
Unlikely as De Walt is owned by Stanley Black and Decker and Milwaukee by TTI who also make Ryobi.
Could you recommend a cheaper tablesaw. £1000 is out of my price range at the moment
It's cheaper if you shop around, Amazon prices fluctuate all the time. I can't really recommend any other tools as i haven't used them
Dewalt outbeats milwakee in most categories except that its louder but therefore more power. I've used both brands for a long time and still like Dewalt way more. Many features also are on most tools it's just older tools that you had previously that were weak (makita sander).
I find Keith that milwaukee tools look remarkably similar to other time served competitors ( Blue and Black ) ( Yellow and Black ), now what is it they say about imitation....... Hmmm!!!
They probably are. The Chinese copy things like that. Look at Banggood and you will see loads of Woodpecker and Incra knock-offs.
You have some sawdust on your sweater?
It’s nothing a bit of Head and Shoulders wouldn’t fix... 😂
🤣 it's this one www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073JV7WBL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_b4XY9xhHOKU8t
@@RagnBoneBrown yeah, it’s currently unavailable.... I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry 😂
If I had the cash it would be Milwaukee for me.
I don’t so it evolution and Erbauer.
Ridiculous to sell a power tool in UK/Europe/World with imperial settings on it.
😆🍻🍺😊
Are Milwaukee tools made in China.
Wow, you ate takling fast, too fast indied
There are speed settings in CZcams if you want to slow it down. Most people want me to get to the point quickly
🤯never point a gun at your own head ☹️
A shame you took the guard off the tablesaw
